Man distressed by treacherous woman? (6)
I believe the answer is:
samson
'man distressed by treacherous woman?' is the definition.
'Samson' can be an answer for 'man' (I have seen 'Strong man' mean 'samson' so perhaps 'man' could also mean 'samson'). I am not certain of the 'distressed by treacherous woman?' bit.
'man distressed by treacherous woman?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'man' could be 'son' and 'son' is present in the answer.
'woman?' could be 'sam' and 'sam' is found within the answer.
No letters remain.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for samson that I've seen before include "Delilah sheared him" , "he was known for his strength" , "Delilah's muscular boy friend" , "Israelite leader betrayed by Delilah" , "Strong man of the Bible, Delilah's boy friend" .)
